Oh, I don't think I'll get the last word on this issue." In seeking to explain why Moore's visit to campus has incited so much controversy, Sederburg said: "We live in a very value intensive community. This is a community that is filled with individuals who understand their values, believe in their values, and want to act out their values." Sederburg encouraged people "to realize the depth and Sensitivity" of people on both sides of this debate.

The recently completed construction project makes it easier to hit Interstate 15 northbound but it also poses some safety issues that Orem's police department has been addressing by issuing traffic citations.
